Seven-star Swampert Tera Raids will begin appearing in Paldea from Thursday, May 30 at 7pm CT to Sunday, June 2 at 6:59pm CT and again the following week from Thursday, June 6 at 7pm CT to Sunday, June 9 at 6:59pm CT. Like previous seven-star raid bosses, Unrivaled Swampert is no joke and it\u2019ll cause you a lot of problems if you come unprepared. Here\u2019s what you need to know about the Unrivaled Swampert Tera Raid and how to beat it in Pok\u00e9mon Scarlet and Violet. This Swampert has a few surprises up its sleeve, but if you have the right Pok\u00e9mon and build, you\u2019ll still come out on top in this Scarlet and Violet Tera Raid. We\u2019ll go over its typing, weaknesses, moves, and the best Pok\u00e9mon counters. What type is Unrivaled Swampert? Swampert is normally Water\/Ground-type and will have the Poison Tera Type for this specific raid. This means it has just two defensive weaknesses: Ground and Psychic-type attacks. Between the two, Psychic is going to be the safer option since Ground \u2018mons are weak to Swampert\u2019s Water-type attacks. Perhaps the scariest part of Swampert\u2019s Poison Tera Type is the threat of being poisoned by one of its moves. This can be avoided if your counter is Poison or Ground, or if it\u2019s holding the Covert Cloak item to prevent secondary effects. What moves does Unrivaled Swampert know? All of Swampert\u2019s moves are offensive except one, but that doesn\u2019t mean the battle won\u2019t have any annoying gimmicks. When it comes to offense, Swampert has a mix of physical and special attacks. It\u2019ll hit your Pok\u00e9mon on the physical side with Earthquake and Liquidation, while its special attacks are Hydro Pump, Sludge Wave, and Muddy Water. The one status move it does have is Yawn, which puts the target to sleep on the following turn. We all know how frustrating it is to be put to sleep for a few turns, but you also have to watch out for the secondary effects of Swampert\u2019s offensive moves. Muddy Water may lower accuracy, Liquidation may lower Defense, and Sludge Wave could leave your \u2018mon poisoned. As previously stated, the easiest way to avoid all of these secondary effects is to have your Pok\u00e9mon hold the Covert Cloak. Then you\u2019ll only have to worry about sleep, which can\u2019t easily be avoided unless your \u2018mon has a Chesto Berry or the Insomnia ability. Moves Hydro Pump Liquidation Earthquake Sludge Wave Additional Moves Muddy Water Yawn Best counters for the Unrivaled Swampert Tera Raid in Pok\u00e9mon Scarlet and Violet The ideal counter for Swampert is one that can tank a lot of hits and deal super-effective damage at the same time. That\u2019s why I went with the Water\/Psychic-type Slowbro, a popular counter for other difficult Tera Raids. Another great alternative would be Vaporeon. Both of these Water Pok\u00e9mon use the same Stored Power strategy to crush the Gen III Starter. Best Slowbro Tera Raid build in Pok\u00e9mon Scarlet and Violet Slowbro was the MVP of the Cinderace and Greninja Tera Raid events, and it works great against Swampert, too. You can even recycle the same or similar build if you participated in those two other raid events. Tera Type Held Item Ability Nature Moveset EVs Psychic Covert Cloak Own Tempo or Oblivious\u00a0 Modest (+ Special Attack, - Attack) Stored Power\u00a0 Nasty Plot\u00a0 Amnesia\u00a0 Slack Off 252 HP\u00a0 252 Special Attack\u00a0 Four Defense or Special Defense The game plan is simple\u2014set up with Iron Defense, Amnesia, Nasty Plot, or Calm Mind to boost the damage of Stored Power. I went with just Nasty Plot and Amnesia, but you could also swap those for Calm Mind and Iron Defense. The annoying part is Swampert will reset your stat boosts early on in the battle, so aim to use three Nasty Plots and one or two Stored Powers before the shield goes up and before your boosts disappear. After Slowbro\u2019s stats reset, focus on setting up again, starting with the defensive boosts to reduce incoming damage. For example, I used three Amnesias to max Slowbro\u2019s Special Defense and then three Nasty Plots to max its Special Attack. Using Calm Mind and Iron Defense instead of Amnesia and Iron Defense technically gives you more setup potential, but it\u2019ll take a little longer. Either way, spam Stored Power and Terastallize to the Psychic Tera Type after setting up. Use Slack Off to heal Slowbro\u2019s HP when necessary. Best Vaporeon Tera Raid build in Pok\u00e9mon Scarlet and Violet Like Slowbro, Vaporeon does fantastic against Swampert with the Stored Power strategy while also being immune to all Water-type attacks thanks to the Water Absorb ability. That means you won't have to worry about an accuracy drop from Muddy Water or a Defense drop from Liquidation. Here's a reliable Vaporeon build and game plan shared by popular content creator Austin John Plays: Tera Type Held Item Ability Nature Moveset EVs Psychic Shell Bell Water Absorb Modest (+ Special Attack,

Seven-star Swampert Tera Raids will begin appearing in Paldea from Thursday, May 30 at 7pm CT to Sunday, June 2 at 6:59pm CT and again the following week from Thursday, June 6 at 7pm CT to Sunday, June 9 at 6:59pm CT. Like previous seven-star raid bosses, Unrivaled Swampert is no joke and it\u2019ll cause you a lot of problems if you come unprepared. Here\u2019s what you need to know about the Unrivaled Swampert Tera Raid and how to beat it in Pok\u00e9mon Scarlet and Violet. This Swampert has a few surprises up its sleeve, but if you have the right Pok\u00e9mon and build, you\u2019ll still come out on top in this Scarlet and Violet Tera Raid. We\u2019ll go over its typing, weaknesses, moves, and the best Pok\u00e9mon counters. What type is Unrivaled Swampert? Swampert is normally Water\/Ground-type and will have the Poison Tera Type for this specific raid. This means it has just two defensive weaknesses: Ground and Psychic-type attacks. Between the two, Psychic is going to be the safer option since Ground \u2018mons are weak to Swampert\u2019s Water-type attacks. Perhaps the scariest part of Swampert\u2019s Poison Tera Type is the threat of being poisoned by one of its moves. This can be avoided if your counter is Poison or Ground, or if it\u2019s holding the Covert Cloak item to prevent secondary effects. What moves does Unrivaled Swampert know? All of Swampert\u2019s moves are offensive except one, but that doesn\u2019t mean the battle won\u2019t have any annoying gimmicks. When it comes to offense, Swampert has a mix of physical and special attacks. It\u2019ll hit your Pok\u00e9mon on the physical side with Earthquake and Liquidation, while its special attacks are Hydro Pump, Sludge Wave, and Muddy Water. The one status move it does have is Yawn, which puts the target to sleep on the following turn. We all know how frustrating it is to be put to sleep for a few turns, but you also have to watch out for the secondary effects of Swampert\u2019s offensive moves. Muddy Water may lower accuracy, Liquidation may lower Defense, and Sludge Wave could leave your \u2018mon poisoned. As previously stated, the easiest way to avoid all of these secondary effects is to have your Pok\u00e9mon hold the Covert Cloak. Then you\u2019ll only have to worry about sleep, which can\u2019t easily be avoided unless your \u2018mon has a Chesto Berry or the Insomnia ability. Moves Hydro Pump Liquidation Earthquake Sludge Wave Additional Moves Muddy Water Yawn Best counters for the Unrivaled Swampert Tera Raid in Pok\u00e9mon Scarlet and Violet The ideal counter for Swampert is one that can tank a lot of hits and deal super-effective damage at the same time. That\u2019s why I went with the Water\/Psychic-type Slowbro, a popular counter for other difficult Tera Raids. Another great alternative would be Vaporeon. Both of these Water Pok\u00e9mon use the same Stored Power strategy to crush the Gen III Starter. Best Slowbro Tera Raid build in Pok\u00e9mon Scarlet and Violet Slowbro was the MVP of the Cinderace and Greninja Tera Raid events, and it works great against Swampert, too. You can even recycle the same or similar build if you participated in those two other raid events. Tera Type Held Item Ability Nature Moveset EVs Psychic Covert Cloak Own Tempo or Oblivious\u00a0 Modest (+ Special Attack, - Attack) Stored Power\u00a0 Nasty Plot\u00a0 Amnesia\u00a0 Slack Off 252 HP\u00a0 252 Special Attack\u00a0 Four Defense or Special Defense The game plan is simple\u2014set up with Iron Defense, Amnesia, Nasty Plot, or Calm Mind to boost the damage of Stored Power. I went with just Nasty Plot and Amnesia, but you could also swap those for Calm Mind and Iron Defense. The annoying part is Swampert will reset your stat boosts early on in the battle, so aim to use three Nasty Plots and one or two Stored Powers before the shield goes up and before your boosts disappear. After Slowbro\u2019s stats reset, focus on setting up again, starting with the defensive boosts to reduce incoming damage. For example, I used three Amnesias to max Slowbro\u2019s Special Defense and then three Nasty Plots to max its Special Attack. Using Calm Mind and Iron Defense instead of Amnesia and Iron Defense technically gives you more setup potential, but it\u2019ll take a little longer. Either way, spam Stored Power and Terastallize to the Psychic Tera Type after setting up. Use Slack Off to heal Slowbro\u2019s HP when necessary. Best Vaporeon Tera Raid build in Pok\u00e9mon Scarlet and Violet Like Slowbro, Vaporeon does fantastic against Swampert with the Stored Power strategy while also being immune to all Water-type attacks thanks to the Water Absorb ability. That means you won't have to worry about an accuracy drop from Muddy Water or a Defense drop from Liquidation. Here's a reliable Vaporeon build and game plan shared by popular content creator Austin John Plays: Tera Type Held Item Ability Nature Moveset EVs Psychic Shell Bell Water Absorb Modest (+ Special Attack,
